Just spoke with Damar Hamlin’s uncle. Damar was originally on 100% oxygen and is now down to 50%. Says the family is hanging in there. He thanked Bills fans, and Bengals fans and asked for continued prayers
With 2 ER physicians as parents, none of my 4 children will ever play tackle football. I said what I said. And I live in Texas where they’re in full pads by age 7.
Reports of Damar Hamlin’s oxygen being reduced from 100% to 50% is really encouraging. Hopefully they can continue to successfully wean down while maintaining oxygen saturation in the 90%’s (ideally >95%) and hopefully can successfully be extubated (vent taken out) soon 👇🏻
As a physician I believe Damar Hamlin was likely suffering from commotio cordis where a blow to the chest at a precise moment in the electrical cycle stops the heart. Those trying to tie this to vaccine status to project their unscientific beliefs are terrible, horrible people.
CPR is serious stuff. As an ICU nurse who’s done it (and knows the emotional toll), I can’t imagine what the players are feeling right now. Life is short. Cherish those around you. Praying for a full recovery.
As an ER doc, I can 100% tell you that after cardiac arrest, CPR and defibrillation (AED), there is no way any provider will say Damar Hamlin is ‘okay’ anytime soon.
Cancel the game @NFL. Let people be together.

Integris, Mercy, and SSM all say they have no ICU beds.
OU Health says they have no COVID beds.
Both Integris and Mercy say they have NO available beds.

Oklahoma State quietly has the most impressive resume in college hoops no one talks about: 16-6 overall, swept Oklahoma, swept Texas Tech, beat Arkansas, Kansas + Texas, four losses by 3 points or less. Love everything about this team - get better every single time I watch them
